Let's go for a unique tour in a less crowded hiking area with extraordinary landscapes and some culinary highlights in the huts too.

It starts slightly downhill from the Bremer Hütte to the "Hohen Boden". From the Bremer Hütte we first follow the path towards Simmingjöchl. After about ten minutes, our route to the Magdeburger Hütte branches off down a slight incline. Marked path tracks lead down to the rear Simmingboden, which we cross to the other side. A creek has to be jumped over. Then on a clear climb diagonally left upwards. Later, the first glacial sections appear, which are sometimes secured in steeper places. We gain a prominent flat area that was covered by glacial ice not too long ago. Now there are only remnants of the Simmingferner under the following steep bar.  The ascent to the Bremer Scharte at 2,890 m follows. The crossing is one of the highest in the Stubai Alps. The path leads through glacial striations and over ridges. From the Scharte down to the Magdeburger Hütte, the path has been redesigned and leads through rocky terrain. It is an invitation for all mountain hikers who have tried their best in the high Alps to set off on undiscovered paths. The change over the main Alpine ridge is of course a temptation and opens up new horizons, especially at the Bremer Scharte. When the weather is clear, the show reaches as far as the Dolomites. 

On the South Tyrolean side we see a new mountain area. The framing of the Pflersch valley and other mountain ranges, which are enchantingly staggered one after the other. The well-laid trail pulls away from the saddle to the left and loses moderately steeply in height. At the rock base of the Schafkampspitze you have to cross into a gully (briefly insured). Slightly lower out of the loose scree to the left and gradually into grassy terrain. Our path winds its way down over various steps, crosses the stream on the crosses the stream on the threshold of a beautiful floor and leads along glacial striations to the Magdeburger Hütte.

Near the Magdeburger Hütte is the Stuben Lake, where beautiful cotton grass mats can be observed in summer.

The path itself does not present any major difficulties. However, between Weißwand (3,018 m) and Hohem Zahn (2,924 m) a ledge has to be crossed, where caution is needed especially with snow. The ascent to the summit of the Weißwand is worthwhile. When the weather is clear, there is a wonderful view of the Zillertal Alps and the Dolomites, the Ortler Group and the Ötztal Alps all the way to the Zugspitze!

Once the two peaks are done, we go further east and we head to Rifugio Calciati al Tribulaun (italian Tribulaun Haus). Here we have a well deserved break before heading to the valley. The hut is wonderfully located in Pflerschtal close to Sandes lake. After the break we head to valley going first up to the Pflerscher Scharte at 2,599m. From here the descent to the Austrian Tribulauenhaus 2,054m begins. Finally from the Tribulauenhaus the descent to the Feuerstein can be mastered in about 1-2 hours
